The New Single Malt Whiskey: More Than 325 Bottles, From 197 Distilleries, in More Than 25 Countries. We double cask mature: after some time, the spirit is transferred into a previously used single malt Scottish whisky barrel for finishing, which softens the oaky bourbon notes and allows a little more of a comfortable rest in the final stages of ageing. We currently have three core expressions: our original ex-Bordeaux Cask Single Malt, our American Oak ex-Bourbon Cask Single Malt and our ex-Oloroso Sherry Cask Single Malt, all carefully crafted in our distillery in the Old Town Hall, Bovey Tracey.

With limited capacity, Bimber has attracted a strong community of whisky lovers through its single cask program.

They also introduce peated malt into the mix – just enough to allow for a hint of smoke on the aroma and a drier, gently lingering aftertaste.

Our pick of the best English whiskies of note Cotswolds Distillery Sherry Cask Single Malt Whisky, 57.

The Forest distillery in Macclesfield Forest has established itself as one of the most consistent operations in the country.

After putting the initial release of single malt (Chapter 6 in the saga) on our site, it sold out almost instantly. Adnams makes some of England’s most popular beers, having been in the brewing business for 150 years. years later, the whisky is delightful, with a hint of smoke and a wonderful taste of juicy dark fruits and ginger biscuits. The whisky is very light in colour, and it’s light on the palate too, with some depth provided by some prune-like fruit and a drying oak finish. Three other English distilleries, also producing whisky by 2014, were The Cotswolds Distillery, Ludlow Distillery and The Lakes Distillery.
